But she opted to keep the rest of her look low-key as she rocked off duty chic in a pair of flat black moccasins and an oversized grey sweater.

Ashley's jumper also had practical uses, as she pulled down its sleeves to ensure that she didn't have to touch the handle of the trolley.

The star managed to keep her cool in the Californian heat as she scraped her trademark golden tresses into a messy chignon, which she piled on top of her head.

And she covered her face with some oversized square shades that rested neatly on her nose.

Underneath her sunglasses Ashley showed off her natural beauty as she went seemingly makeup free for the outing and, instead, sported a natural sunk-kissed glow.

Nevertheless, makeup is still something that is close to Ashley's heart and last month she announced that she would be launching her own beauty range.

Ashley appeared on KTLA 5 Morning News Show, where she said that creating a beauty line was a natural next step for her.

'For me, I'm just like a really creative person,' she said. 'It was so hard just being an actress and being at the whim of everyone else and just waiting for your next job, that I wasn’t feeling fulfilled at the end of the day.

'So I started my make-up line and it was developed two years ago. It takes a year for lipstick to be made, which I never knew.'

Ashley, who said she has always loved 'working with amazing make-up artists', explained that her line is great for a young audience because it is 'amazing quality but it’s affordable'.

And speaking about how the collaboration with BH Cosmetics works, she added: 'I come with inspiration for what I want to do, I pick out exactly what colours. I just get all of it in front of me.'

Ashley also talked about the fact that it has been 10 years since the release of High School Musical - the movie which catapulted her to stardom - and the fact that a reboot is now in the works.

'It's so crazy. I can't believe it's been 10 years. It was such an exciting time for us, so I wish them luck,' she said of the youngsters who are auditioning.

'I think the magic of that movie is that we were all really good friends and we enjoyed doing what we were doing, and there was just something captured in that moment.'
